From Daily Variety:
BEIJING — China state broadcaster CCTV and media watchdogs are reeling from an Internet clip of the country’s top TV sports anchor being lambasted by his wife and accused of having an affair at a high-profile Olympics press conference.
Speaking in a controlled voice, Hu Ziwei, wife of CCTV 5 sports anchor Zhang Bin and herself a well-known broadcaster, got onto the stage in Beijing and accused her husband of cheating on her.
This was TV dynamite as Zhang, 38, was presiding over the launch of CCTV Sports’ Olympics coverage at the time.
“Today is a special day for the Olympic Channel, and it’s a special day for Zhang Bin, and for me, it’s a special day, too. Because just two hours ago, I found out that, besides me, Zhang Bin has been having an improper relationship with another woman,” she said.
The clip has been viewed 350,000 times in two days on YouTube. Sounds like a cool new Olympic sport. –Jim Buzinski
